D-168   War Merit Cross Second Class with Swords (Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern) Award Document to Jagdaufseher Ferdinand Schlegel, with Facsimile Keitel Signature
Neat document on pre-printed stock paper, which is a medium weight card stock. The presentation text reads “in the name of the Führer, I present to Gamekeeper Ferdinand Schlegel the  Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse mit Schwertern” (no explanation as to why he rated the Swords, not being military) in Fraktur (gothic) typeface. The document has a facsimile signature of “Generalfeldmarschall und Chef des Oberkommandos der Wermacht” Keitel. There is a worn fold crease across the center (slightly fragile), and minimal browning, but the certificate overall is very nice. This award was issued at “Führer Headquarters” on 1 April 1944. Neat piece!
